Human E-Selectin (SELE) ELISA Kit

CD62E is also known as endothelial leukocyte adhesion molecule 1 (ELAM1) or E selectin. It is a type I membrane protein that belongs to the selectin family of surface molecules (along with CD62L and CD62P) . Selectins are C type cell surface lectins that play a role in leukocyte adhesion to the blood vessel wall endothelium. CD62E (E selectin) is an endothelial cell specific selectin that is expressed on cytokine induced endothelial cells only after activation with proinflammatory cytokines. In vitro experiments have shown that IL1, TNFalpha and bacterial wall components like lipopolysaccharides induce the transcription of CD62E in an NFkB dependent signalling cascade. CD62E has been associated with blood vessel endothelium in diverse inflammatory situations.

Human E-Selectin (SELE) ELISA Kit has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Human SELE. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Human SELE and analogues was observed.

This Human E-Selectin (SELE) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate SELE in samples. An antibody specific for SELE has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anySELE present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for SELE is added to the wells. After washing, Streptavidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of SELE bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.

• Do not mix components from different kit lots or use reagents beyond the kit expiration date.• Allow all reagents to warm to room temperature for at least 30 minutes before opening.• Pre-rinse the pipet tip with reagent, use fresh pipet tips for each sample, standard and reagent to avoid contamination.• Unused wells must be kept desiccated at 4 °C in the sealed bag provided.• Mix Thoroughly is very important for the result. It is recommended using low frequency oscillator or slight hand shaking every 10 minutes.• It is recommended that all samples and standards be assayed in duplicate or triplicate.
